Pruritus ani: Itching on/around the anus is quite common and can be cause by few things such as excessive sweating, parasite/pinworms, frequent stools/diarrhea and thus wiping, yeast infections, rubbing from tring-clothing, hemorrhoids, skin tags, fistulas etc... Keep good hygiene/dry, preparation-h/lamisil may help. If not better with above, consult doc for eval/treatment. Good luck.
